• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Well, myrna won't be bothering anyone else here. ;)
 
are they that crazy that they join FORUMS to get at people?
 
Seems spam seems to be flooding forums, too, lately... I've seen it on the Harmony-Central.com forums and I have more posts from spammers than real posters on my own forum!
 
Jeez, this is rediculous...stupid scammmers/spammers.... :( So far, I haven't got anything yet, and I hope I never do.

What do you mean? Can you explain that better? I sell a ton of stuff in FS/FT and would like to know what I should be looking for. You can send me a PM if you want, thanks in advance!

You know, the "I desperately need your product, my son is in college in Nigeria and needs this *insert item here* to complete his degree and I would like to pay you *amount 5x the worth of the item* by *horribly unsafe mode of money transfer* if you will please send it to him in Nigeria by *fastest mode of shipping possible*"

It's not believable unless you're incredibly naive, and unfortunatly, many people on ebay see a big dollar sign and lose all judgement and fall for it.
